Apply Handling per Order and Per Item

In the example below we use the algorithms ORDER and ITEM. For products in the group OVER a $5 surcharge is added per order. For products in the group VISION a $4 surcharge is added per order, and a $3 surcharge per item.

So if I had say 5*Products that are in the handling group OVER and 4*Products that are in the group VISION the handling fee would be 1*5+1*4*4*3.

Apply Handling Per Order and Per Product

In the example below we use the algorithms ORDER and PRODUCT. For products in the group OVER a $5 surcharge is added per order. For products in the group VISION a $4 surcharge is added per order, and a $3 surcharge per unique product. We have Per Unique Product Totalling switched on.

So if I had say 5*Products that are in the handling group OVER and 4*Products that are in the group VISION the handling fee would be 1*5+1*4*4*3.

Different Percentage Handling Charge For Domestic/International

Here the client wanted to add a 15% handling charge based on cart subtotal for USA customers, and 30% for Rest of World. The Handling Matrix extension does that very easily using a setup as shown in attached CSV.

Add a Handling Fee to Specific Delivery Methods

You can add a handling fee to the cart for specific delivery methods (as of zip version 5.2). So say you get charged a customs charge when shipping to Canada via Air, you could add on $20 for air shipments to cover this cost. Take a look below for how to do this.

N.B: The delivery type text in the CSV file MUST match what is shown on the front end exactly. This includes spaces and capitalisation.

Restrict Shipping to a Specified Method

You may have some items that can only ship a specified method. This extension can restrict shipping by setting the price to -1 in the CSV file for a specifc method. This method will not show in front end or admin if the price is -1.

N.B: The delivery type text in the CSV file MUST match what is shown on the front end exactly. This includes spaces and capitalisation.

Decrease Shipping Charges by a Percentage based on Cart Subtotal

Let's say you want to give a 20% discount when the cart subtotal is over 100USD. With Handling Matrix you can do this. You can even vary to give a 40% discount when over 500USD. Use the PERCENTAGE_SHIP algorithm to implement.

Increase Shipping by 50% on 2nd Day Air for some Products

In this example the customer wanted to increase the shipping price by 50% for 2nd Day Air when oversized products are in the cart. We set up a handling id of OVERSIZED, assign this to the relevant products and then configure the csv to handle this:

Add a Surcharge Based on Cart Weight

In this example our customer wants to add on $5 if the cart weight is under 10lbs, but $20 if the cart weight is over 10lbs and also will add on $7 for each additional 5lbs.
